Every move counts, both in chess and in life!

 

We at ELA Green School, one of the best international schools in Maraimalai Nagar, believe that each and every move made during a chess game and in life counts. Constructive thinking as well as strategic planning and patience are developed through the game of chess. We work on critical thinking and strategic planning through holistic education that fosters learning beyond textbook boundaries.

Fostering Strategic Intelligence Through Chess

Here at ELA Green School, the benefits of chess go beyond entertainment and recreation; it is integrated into our curricula to help children think. Playing chess helps improve memory, attention, problem solving, and reasoning abilities. Our students engage in friendly and competitive chess bouts where they perfect the art of checkmating, much like life, where every move made impacts the outcome.

Recent Chess Achievements

Recently, ELA Green School hosted a district chess tournament that showcased our school’s commitment to excellence in chess. This event was well attended by enthusiastic competitors and viewers and, as such, demonstrated the strategic skills of young talents. We take this moment to congratulate our students:

·         3rd Place Ratan Venkatesh (Under 17 Category)

·         Jessica Rose (Under 13 Category) – 7th Place

·         Vidhu Vamshini (Under 9 Category) – 17th Place

·         Sushanth (Under 17 Category) – 9th Place

These achievements are a testament to the strategic planning and dedication we seek to nurture in our students.

Exploring Mystery: My Ela Green School Maiden Day

  Welcome to Ela Green On my first visit to Ela Green Schoo l, I felt like I had stepped into a place where creativity thrived and learning had no boundaries. This school is full of creativity and warmth from every angle; it is surrounded by greenery and painted with beautiful murals that are vibrant. When I walked through the gates, I knew this was going to be different. A Glimpse Into the Inner Worlds “Imaginations that had become slumped on their backs were resuscitated at our open house"—these words kept ringing in my head as I experienced the magic of Ela Green for myself. In the classroom, lessons weren’t just taught; they were doorways leading into children’s dreams. From hopscotch on imaginary ponds to stories about the heroic battles against germs while washing hands, each moment was filled with imagination. Learning Beyond Boundaries At Ela, learning has no bounds—one minute you could be in a history lesson, and next thing you know, you are in a scene from an action-pack...
